Harvard professor, author to speak at UNC on Sept. 22

Harvard professor emeritus Edward O. Wilson will speak at 7 p.m. Sept. 22 in the ballrooms of the University Center at the University of Northern Colorado, 10th Avenue and 20th Street. The event is free and open to the public but will require a ticket. Tickets are available by calling the UNC Ticket Office at (970) 351-4849.

Wilson has won two Pulitzer Prizes and was named one of the century’s 100 most influential environmentalists by “Time” magazine.
